Abstract
New digital technologies can generate substantial gains for adopting businesses. In this paper we put to the test the effects that these technologies have on firm performance. More specifically, we analyse the impact of new technologies associated with the Industry
4.0 paradigm on labour productivity, average wages and sales growth. The analysis is based on data drawn from Rilevazione Imprese e Lavoro (RIL) Survey run by the Inapp on a large representative sample of Italian firms.
